Every Day is Night - VA-11 HALL-A (King for Another Day) @pedipanol

pedipanol / Saria Lemes Latin Jazz wannabe-style arrange of Every Day is Night from VA-11 HALL-A: Cyberpunk Bartender Action, composed by Garoad. Arranged by me for for the SiIvaGunner King for Another Day Tournament.

I didn't get interested on arranging for KfAD2 until the very last minute, when I realized ZUN allowed for alcohol-related games, and as I'm really into VA-11 HALL-A again (from being working on some PC98 covers of its soundtrack), I just booted the program up and finished this over the course of 2 days.

The idea of making it a Latin Jazz wannabe came from me playing the first notes on my keyboard, it just sounds like the kind of riffs you'd hear on this kind of music. And it's also a style I've really wanted to do for a long time but never found the right song or inspiration to do, so I'm pretty happy I managed to do it here!

As I had already learned how to play the chords of this theme on guitar from last year, I managed to do most of it from memory alone, only listening to the original again for doing final checkups for the melody transcription. I probably mistook some of the chords, but I think what I got worked out fine for this arrangement, so whatever.

*phew* I hope you enjoy this arrangement as much as I enjoyed making it! And thanks for reading everything, if you did!

Together (Original Song)

pedipanol / Saria Lemes 2023-06-11 | My submission to Battle of the Bits' "Infloresce & Friends: Charity Festival" competition. Got 1st out of 69 entries (nice)!

Had this idea in my head for a few days, only had a day available to make it in time for the compo. I was really self aware of how it turned out and definitely would like to revisit this track eventually, but I`m glad it resonated with so many people.

Heavily inspired by Kazumi Totaka and Ayana Tsujita's works.

You should also check the other tracks in the compo! Lots of great stuff in there! battleofthebits.com/arena/Battle/8126/Vomitorium/Infloresce+%26+Friends%3A+Charity+Festival

(Gameboy Remix) Lagtrain - inabakumori

pedipanol / Saria Lemes 2022-12-08 | Legit Gameboy remix of Lagtrain, composed by inabakumori, made in LSDJ.

Made this around 1 year ago and you might have seen some snippets of it in my twitter. I wanted to make an animation too but I gave up then i thought of making a cool edit of the oscilloscope which didn't pan out too, so at this point might as wel ljust release with a simple oscilloscope just to get it out there...

Anyways, Lagtrain is a song I really love, ~~train admirer aside~~, the lyrics speak to me so personally, not to mention the amazing original MV and the youtube culture it launched. Despite the troubles with this was super fun to make, some of it was made in a couple streams in my twitch channel (twitch.tv/pedipanol) which were really fun and I want to do more of.

There are a couple vocal synth songs chiptune covers that I'm halfway through and want to finish, so maybe look forward to them!

Cronos Delivery Service (Chrono Trigger x Studio Ghibli)

pedipanol / Saria Lemes 2021-06-04 | SNES Arrange of "A Town with an Ocean View" from Kiki's Delivery Service, utilizing instruments and elements from "Yearnings of the Wind" from Chrono Trigger, made on the game's music engine.

The pixel art in this video was made by twitter.com/i_am_thirteen

A bit of history: In 2018 ago when I was active on the SiIvaGunner channel, I noticed that Yearnings of the Wind sounded similar to Joe Hisaishi's style, which got me wanting to make this arrange. After I did it, listening to more tracks from the Chrono Trigger OST I started noticing how influential Ghibli's earlier soundtracks were in Yasunori Mitsuda's style and it really compelled me to keep making more arranges in this style.

Last year I was fiddling with VGMtrans and after noticing that the sequencing format on Square's SNES driver resembled MML, I found CTSPCTool, a software that let me use MML sequences to inject music in the game. So it was a perfect opportunity to start inserting those arranges into the game's rom itself. Some compromises had to me made compared to the SiIva version, which I made with the C700 VST, but it translated really well!

So now that i got a good chunk of them done and some friends offered to help me by making pixel art for each of the arrangements, I thought i'd upload them on my channel! I'll make them weekly uploads to keep this channel from having long periods without uploads!!

I hope you'll enjoy it if you haven't heard before, and if you have, I hope you don't mind me reuploading old contend on my youtube channel, I have been busy working on soundtracks and barely have time/energy to make music outside of that... ^^''

Fight and Flight (Virtual Resort Club 7) - Rivals of Aether: RESONANT MIXES 2

pedipanol / Saria Lemes 2021-05-25 | 2a03+VRC7 Remix of Fight and Flight from Rivals of Aether.

I got invited by RESOFORCE to make a remix for the new Rivals of Aether arrange album, released on the April Fools event! I love all the versions of Fight and Flight so I'm glad i could make an arrange of it!! The album itself is full of banger arrangements so check it out if you haven't already!!

resoforce.bandcamp.com/album/rivals-of-aether-resonant-mixes-2

The only thing I had in mind when I went to arrange it was to try making something I never tried before in chiptune, then I saw a post talking about a drummer's urge to switch from a samba groove to a funky one and vice-versa so I decided to try it out on this track and it worked better than I expected!!

I hope you'll enjoy it!!

(PC-98 Remix) Faron Woods - The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess

pedipanol / Saria Lemes 2021-01-07 | Legit OPNA Remix of the Faron Woods theme from The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess, made in PMD MML

Twilight Princess is far from my favorite zelda game but i have fond memories of the soundtrack... not much because of the game but because in my teen years the most fun I had was listening to this soundtrack on the living room while waving my arms pretending to be conducting it.

Because of that I've been wanting to remix a theme from the soundtrack for a while, but coming up with ideas is hardddd so I'm thankful that Scooblee shared this idea and allowed me to execute it.

The idea was making an arrangement of this song using Ryu Umemoto's instruments. And I could see where she came from because there's this theme from YU-NO called "Note" that also has this harp ostinato, so I started from that, and added other elements from Umemoto's works.

I'm pretty happy with how it came out, I hope you'll enjoy it as well!

(PC-98 Remix) Crimson in the Black Sea ~ Legendary Fish - Touhou 10.5: SWR

pedipanol / Saria Lemes 2020-12-30 | Legit OPNA Cover of Iku's theme from Scarlet Weather Rhapsody.

Made this during a stream on twitch.tv/pedipanol . I honestly didn't expect anyone would be around for a stream of someone making music with a text editor but hey somehow some people got interested that and that motivated me to do this!

This was a song I've enjoyed for quite some time, I hadn't played the fighting games but I got to know this song from Heavenly Gathering of Clouds, where they quoted this theme in the Stage 4 theme. When revisiting this a few days ago I noticed it had a particularly interesting chord progression, with it going to 3 different keys on the chorus alone and I thought it would be fun to transcribe!

As I wanted it to be finished on stream I decided to use 霰 (nicovideo)'s MIDI transcription as a reference for the fast notes, as those were quite hard to get with everything going on.

Also huge thanks to Yuutou for the nice PC98 style portrait of Iku for the thumbnail!

Anyways, thanks for reading and I hope you've enjoyed this remix!

(PC-98 Remix) Native Faith - Touhou 10: MoF

pedipanol / Saria Lemes 2020-08-02 | Legit OPNA cover of Suwako Moriya's Theme from Mountain of Faith.

Thank you so much for the 100k views on my cover of Keiki's theme! I didn't expect this much even from being a final boss theme from a recent game haha (also it dethroned that lazy undertale cover from my most viewed video, which is always good). I wanted to do something to celebrate it, so I made this.

Mountain of Faith has my favorite soundtrack from the mainline Touhou games (14.3 has the crown overall for me), it does so many things amazingly well! It's my main inspiration whenever I try to make something touhou-esque, and I always find something new when I try to analyze the songs!

This cover was really fun to make, I hope you've enjoyed it!

pedipanol / Saria Lemes 2020-07-25 | 2a03 + MMC5 cover of Bakamitai from the Yakuza series.

A few days ago I made this as a birthday gift for Gabe Fern, an amazing pixel artist and dear friend. He got me into the Yakuza games, and it's been a blast playing through 0 and Kiwami!

I tried making this a 2a03-only cover, but I struggled to make the chorus stand out, so I decided to add the MMC5 to power it up.

I hope you've enjoyed it :D

(Gameboy Remix) Rolling Girl - wowaka

pedipanol / Saria Lemes 2020-04-25 | Legit Gameboy remix of Rolling Girl, composed by wowaka, made in LSDJ.

Here's something I don't usually upload here, for a change!
I've got back to being really into vocaloid recently, having gained access to the PS3 Project Diva games!

I had decided since last year to do something to express my gratitude for wowaka, as he composed some of my favorite tunes, but never got the courage to step up to do it.

I was unsure if i should use gameboy for this, as it would be quite limiting, but this kind of sound in LSDJ is something I've always wanted to try out but didn't know where to, so hey here it is!

I hope you'll enjoy it!
Thank you, wowaka.

True Kinda FM - Steven Universe: The Movie (King for Another Day)

pedipanol / Saria Lemes 2020-03-27 | Arrangement of "True Kinda Love" from Steven Universe: The Movie.

This arrange was me trying to sound like yogurtbox (coda and surasshu)'s Tree of Knowledge album. This album has a lot of meaning to me because it's what got me interested both in Ryu Umemoto's works (who is now my fav composer), making PC-98 music, as well as visual novel-style music in general.

I tried to track down/make the FM patches for all the instruments they sampled for the album, but some instruments were still out of my reach, so I just used whatever sounded best!

I wanted to upload this video sooner but I had problems with the MIDI file output due to my DAW not supporting it natively. But then I figured I could just change the instruments to MIDI output and record it on Sekaiju and it worked! As the final episode releases today I figured it was the perfect day to upload this.

Anyways I hope you'll enjoy it!

This track was composed by Rebecca Sugar, Estelle, Chance the Rapper, Macie Stewart, James Fauntleroy, aivi & surasshu, Julian "Zorsy" Sanchez. And arranged by me, pedipanol, with no intention of profit.

(PC-98 Remix) Entrusting this World to Idols ~ Idolatrize World - Touhou 17: WBaWC

pedipanol / Saria Lemes 2019-11-10 | Legit OPNA cover of Keiki Haniyasushin's theme from Wily Beast and Weakest Creature.

Let's start this off by saying I didn't really wanted to cover this theme when I first heard it. While i thought it was really catchy I didn't pay much attention to it, instead focusing on the Stage 5 and Extra Boss themes, which are still on my top 3 of the OST, along with the Stage 1 theme. Idolatrize world is definitely a close fourth tho, otherwise I wouldn't be making this lol.

But about 2 weeks after the game's launch I made the intro of this, mixing it up with elements from Complete Darkness, because... both characters are from hell and their themes' intros have the same chord progression. But I ended up leaving it aside and making a SiivaGunner rip of Complete Darkness instead.

But a few days ago I managed to beat Touhou 17, and I got the inspiration boost to do it, because well... final bosses themes sound much better when you have the tension of facing and beating them! (remember me saying I'd cover Junko's theme? It'll still not happen because of this lmao) So I pulled out an all-nighter to finish this.

Phew, that was a long description. This arrange and video involved more people than just me, so let me thank everyone here:

- ShinkoNet for making the MIDI I used to consult some of the fast notes and other things I couldn't get by year
- Pigu/pigdevil2010, for the (currently) abandoned fm arrange that inspired some of the decisions I made for this cover (notably the pause between the intro and the first verse)
- AxeBane, for the hardware recording of the track
- Yoki, Terraformer9x, Silent Sinner In Scarlet, -Tom-, for help and resources with the PC98 mockup
- ~~And You for listening~~

.... I'll get to Nightmare Diary, sorry for taking so long...

Ok I think that's all, thanks for reading all of this!

(PC-98 Remix) Safe Haven - VA-11 HALL-A

pedipanol / Saria Lemes 2019-10-31 | Legit YM2608 remix of Jill's Room theme from Cyberpunk Bartender Action

Here's a bit of a fresh air, VA-11 HALL-A's OST is something that I loved since I listened to the first track. That paired up with the fact that I found out about this game from searching for PC-98-inspired games makes it a no brainer that it's something I'd end up doing hahah

As that happened in late 2016, you can imagine I've been wanting to make covers of it for a _long_ while now, but I didn't trust my FM sound design to do justice to the original... now I'm confident enough and I hope I managed to capture the feeling of the original! Also, expect more in the future!

pedipanol / Saria Lemes 2019-08-29 | Legit OPNA cover of the Stage 5 theme from Wily Beast and Weakest Creature, written in PMD MML

I'm really glad I wasn't disappointed after lurking for gameplay videos when it was being released, this game is really good and I'm having a ton of fun playing it! The music is pretty great as well, and I knew i had to make a PC-98 remix of this track as soon as the first piano notes started playing...

So I did start this the day the game was released and got halfway through but a bunch of irl stuff started happening on that day and I got really busy, so I could only finish it now, I hope you enjoy it!

I plan on making at least one more Touhou 17 cover, I hope you'll all be here to say "Howdy!" when it's finished ;)

Also I threw a poll to see what next cover I'd do and Nightmare Diary won... it wasn't my next cover in the end, but it's halfway done, I'll be finishing it soon!

(PC-98 Remix) Stage 2 - Silver Surfer

pedipanol / Saria Lemes 2019-05-23 | Legit OPNA+86PCM cover of the Stage 2 theme from Silver Surfer (NES) made in PMD MML

Talk about an underrated track huh, I know Tim Follin did a superb job on the Title Theme and Stage 1 as well but I've always enjoyed this one more than those. I was shocked to find out there are barely any remixes of this track (also some friends didn't even know there was a Stage 2 theme) so I decided to do something about it.

Personally I think this is the best thing I've ever done on the YM2608, or even FM-related. I took special care to not only do the soundchip justice, but the original track as well, because converting a 4-channel track to 11 channels isn't an easy feat, unlike doing the opposite. So, 70% of the time I spent on this was related to brainstorming what to do in each section, but it was worth it, I'm really proud of the result.

Huge thanks to Shnabubula and +tek, who provided me the most helpful feedback while I was making this, this wouldn't be as good whithout their help.

By the way, I'll be uploading some of the tracks/rips I've made for the past months here in the following weeks. I feel this channel is too pc98 touhou remixes-focused, and while I love doing these it's only a fraction of what I do so please bear with me if you're here only for this content.

(PC-98 Remix) The Lamentations Known Only by Jizo - Touhou 17: WBaWC

pedipanol / Saria Lemes 2019-05-05 | Legit OPNA cover of the Stage 1 theme from Wily Beast and Weakest Creature, written in PMD MML

Hey, Touhou 17's demo is here and I really liked it! Not only it feels like an improved mix between 12 and 13's gameplay, as ZUN's artstyle has become really cute. The music is on the Hit or Miss side, I like the direction ZUN is taking his production (considering I really hated the instruments he used after 15), so I have my hopes up his next themes will improve even further!

I fell in love with this first stage theme as soon as it got to the chorus. It doesn't have the awesome "on your face" intro that most stage 1 themes do, but I still think this worked nicely! I hope you enjoy this pc98 rendition of it!

Also, god it's been a long while since I last uploaded something, i'll try to be more active here, sorryy

Extra Boss: Getting Closer to the Ledge - Super Ledgehop: Double Laser

pedipanol / Saria Lemes 2018-11-17 | Hello, this is a track I composed for the awesome game Super Ledgehop: Double Laser, you can grab it on steam for 1USD here store.steampowered.com/app/787070

Mostly inspired by Megaman X and Touhou's soundtracks, originally it was planned to be a more dance-y track to be easier for the Rhythm aspect of the game, but I changed my mind because a more rock-ish tone would fit the boss fight better.

btw Yuuto is best girl

(N-163) Mission Theme 1 - Waterworld [Commission]

pedipanol / Saria Lemes 2018-08-29 | Legit Famicom cover of Mission Theme 1 from Waterworld (SNES), composed by Dean Evans, made in 0cc Famitracker 0.3.13. This was commissioned to me by Anton Uklein.

The only guidelines I had to follow while making this was to not use any DPCM instruments and to push the specs as much as I can, so I made a verbatim with some creative freedoms here and there.

(Orchestral Remix) Kids Festival ~ Innocent Treasures - CoSD

pedipanol / Saria Lemes 2018-07-31 | Orchestral arrangement of "ZUN's theme" from Changeability of Strange Dream, made for King for a Day tournament.

This is my first orchestral arrangement in a long while, I used to do these a lot back in 2014-5, but after learning how to make chiptunes and other stuff, I grew bored of it. But I got a burst of inspiration after listening to some arrangements in Super Smash Brawl, so I thought i might as well try to make one like that for King for a Day.

I hope you like this! Not the kind of stuff I usually post here, I might post more if you want!

(PC-98 Remix) A Star of Hope Rises in the Evening - Touhou 16: HSiFS

pedipanol / Saria Lemes 2018-07-04 | Cover of the Stage 1 theme from Touhou 16: Hidden Star in Four Seasons made in PMD MML for the OPNA soundchip.

Hello! This is a track I actually started making on the day HSiFS demo came out, but I only got around to finish it for the album I participated with the Keine Ahnung circle, Hidden Gem in Four Corners, that was released on May's Reitaisai. You can download it on the link below.

Sorry I haven't posted anything new in a long while, I've been busy with school and work, and on my free time the only thing I got around to make was High Quality Rips (you can check them here youtube.com/playlist?list=PLm_wLG0IrtdOqit_3nPziwuD2MotQAQJ_&disable_polymer=1 ). I just remembered I hadn't uploaded this to my youtube channel yet so I thought I might as well upload it.

Now that my vacations are here, I'm thinking of opening commissions for PC-98 arranges and other chiptune styles, what do you guys think? Would any of you be interested in buying them?

[Original Stuff] THATS NOT CANDY

pedipanol / Saria Lemes 2017-11-01 | Original song made in Renoise, strongly inspired by Yousuke Yasui, +TEK and a song by Princess Sylvysprit that is inspired by both.

This song was fun making, it was originally composed for an One-Hour Battle on battleofthebits that no one else ended up joining hahah, but I got satisfied with the result, so I added some more stuff afterwards.

It's been a while since I last posted something original in here, I post those mainly on my soundcloud because I feel like this channel is more focused on the PC98 touhou stuff. Let me know if you think I should post more non-touhou stuff in here! ^^

This song uses basically VOPM with adittional drum samples.

MP3: soundcloud.com/pedipanol/thats-not-candy

(PC-98 Remix) Eastern Judgement in the Sixtieth Year ~ Fate of Sixty Years - Touhou 9: PoFV

pedipanol / Saria Lemes 2017-08-31 | Legit OPNA cover of Shikieiki's theme from Phantasmagoria of the Flower View made in PMD MML

I took some freedom with this one, using instruments and PMD commands that ZUN never used, I thought it was necessary for doing the original song justice.

It's been a while since the last final boss theme cover I uploaded here. Also, this is the last upload from Akyuu's Short Music Collection 0.5. I'll be completing that album as I make more PC-98 remixes of pofv songs but not sure when that'll happen.
Also, I plan on remixing more Touhou 16 songs, stage 4 and the final boss themes are really appealing. Shinko's done an amazing remix of the latter which you should definitively check out.

Back to work on Akyuu's Time Travel Scroll! I've already come up with a good setlist of songs to cover and also started working on some originals! Until it's out, I'll be uploading other PC-98 remixes that I come up with.

Guess it's about time I finish uploading those covers
This one was super fun to make, like the last one I uploaded, I tried to make it thinking about the OPN's output and then convert it to OPNA by playing on FM 4-5 the same thing as the SSG channels.

pedipanol / Saria Lemes 2017-08-16 | Legit PC-98 Remix of the Stage 5 theme from Touhou 16: Hidden Star in Four Seasons made in PMD MML

Talk about a long title, huh! I fell in love with this song as soon as it started playing on the game so I decided to pc-98 remix it because why not
It kinda reminds me of Japanese Saga, i had some inspiration from it when I began writing this cover.
Also, this cover was made with the intent of playing fine barely missing anything in both soundchips of the PC-98 (YM2203 and YM2608) if you have any PMD player, try turning channels 4-6 and the Rhythm Sound Source off ;)

Hello guys! released Akyuu's Short Music Collection 0.5 on Redditaisai! https://redd.it/6qbaf1 Hope you'll like it!
Instead of releasing Akyuu's Time-Travel Scroll, as I mentioned on my last video, I decided to hold up for a bit, so I could do a better job, mainly on the original tracks I'm putting on it. And since I gave up on putting Shikieiki's theme on that album, I decided to make this short album with some PoFV covers I had already made or left unfinished. You can listen and download the album from the link earlier or from the bandcamp link below, I'll be uploading everything else on the next days.

Yes, it's a PC-98 cover of a PC-98 touhou song
Sorry for the lack of uploads, college and work are killing me, as always... but there are good news!
I'm actually working in an album, the "Akyuu's Time Travel Scroll" (working title), that will include some original songs as well as pc98 remixes, of which some are highly requested.
I talked about it a bit on twitter, the original plan was to just make a compilation of old and new remixes and releasing anytime soon, but I ended up wanting to make something actually new... hopefully until august.
I'll be posting updates on the album on twitter, if you wanna stay tuned.
Anyways, I hope you enjoy this!

(PC-98 Remix) Ghost Fight - Undertale

pedipanol / Saria Lemes 2016-12-01 | Legit PC-9801-86 remix of Napstablook's battle theme from Undertale

Take this remix as some experimental thing, if you wanna get into details, keep on reading.

I've finally learned how to use PPZ8, an option on PMD that lets you use the 86 soundcard's PCM channel (on the visualizer it's the last channel that just holds down an A note) to synthesize up to 8 sample channels (8-bit, 16khz) using the PC-98's processing power.

I used only 2 of these channels on this track (although hoot can't display them). Everything other than the Earthbound samples (MoonsideCafe, YourName2 and Venus) is generated on the FM and RSS channels.

Unrelated comment:
I've been receiving messages about using PC-98 Soundfont, so I give you an important advice: do not use PC-98 Soundfont. It's bad-sounding and if you just slap a midi on it it'll sound even worse, so please, don't do it. Use VOPM instead, it's the best way to make fake PC-98 music.

What about some obscure indie soundtrack cover? :D
I found this game a while ago and fell in love with the soundtrack, so I knew I had to cover it, made it mainly for ear training.

Guess I'll start uploading more non-touhou songs here, since i haven't been uploading much here lately and yet have made some songs on my soundcloud, so i'm gonna do it.
Check out the game, it's pretty criative and have some great ASCII art :DD

pedipanol / Saria Lemes 2016-07-02 | Sorry, I just had to mix Misty Lake and Bad Apple, they sounded kinda similar to me

[INFO ON WHY I MADE THIS BELOW]

I was searching all over internet about M. Kajihara's MMD (not MikuMiku Dance, it's MIDI Music Driver), the driver that was used for the MIDI soundtrack in Story of Eastern Wonderland. And while I couldn't figure out how to write music for it, I could find a way to convert other PC-98 music files to it. So I tried converting LLS's version of Bad Apple and it worked!

Then I just put this on Renoise and worked on this thing, which I planned to do since I first heard DDC's stage 1 theme. I took about 1 and a half hour to finish.

[Also, Renoise's midi export is very shitty so, sorry if some parts sound different of what you see]

TL;DR used PC-98 MMD to convert the original bad apple song, then put on renoise and used VOPM for the FM synthesis

(PC-98 Remix) Sakura Theatre ~ Scarlet Ballet

pedipanol / Saria Lemes 2016-05-13 | PC-98 Cover of MovieMovies1's song, which was made for an One Hour Battle on Battle of the Bits http://battleofthebits.org/arena/Entry/itsatouhou.nsf/21775

It took about 2 non-consecutive hours for me to make this one, I think I'm improving a lot compared to the time I'd need to write a PMD Script when I began this channel.

This time the PMD MML has some notes on what's happening on each section, so be sure to check it out if you're interested.

Last but not least, although it's a recording of FMDSP, I used hoot for playback recording, since it has a more accurate sound. But I think FMDSP loooks better, so I mixed those 2.

By the way, I'm working on a music hack for Touhou 5, this song will be included. If you look forward to it, i'll be posting updates soon enough on my tumblr http://pedipanol.tumblr.com

Mystic Square: In the Frozen Eternal Capital ~ Ice Dream

pedipanol / Saria Lemes 2016-05-12 | **** READ DESCRIPTION ****So, someone came over in the comments of my last video and mentioned that my cover wouldn't be able to play properly in the PC98 games because it would fuck up the sound effects due to the soundchip's limitations, and etc.

Then I explained that I made that cover following the game's channel limitations, used onlly 5 FM channels since the PC98 would save the 6th channel for sound effects, but to be honest I only knew the theory, so I didn't really knew if it would really run fine in the games.

So, out of curiosity, I hacked the game's .DAT files and replaced the music files, not only this one, but others too [as you can see at the beginning and at the end of the video (those are made by HertzDevil tho], just to test if they would run fine, and they did!

Also, I wasn't on my best when I recorded this so that's why I'm playing like a n00b

pedipanol / Saria Lemes 2016-05-08 | Legit PC-98 Cover of the theme of Stage 4 in Legacy of Lunatic Kingdom. This arrangement was based on Dr. Latency's Freak Report version.

So the new Music CD that I've been waiting for a while has finally come out and I took this opportunity to finish this cover that I was working on some weeks ago.

I'm really sorry for the VERY lazy screenshot mockup, I've been too busy with personal issues, so I barely had time to finish this song, so I didn't spent much time on this as I've spent on the others. Also, the key changes on this song were very hard to get, and I still am not satisfied with those parts, but I did the best I could.
